| Africa Stop Ebola is not yet currently available for sale in Canada. Hopefully it will be soon because all proceeds from the sale go directly to those fighting against the devastation of Ebola. We played it today to raise your awareness of this project. We'll keep a watch on it and let you know when it becomes available here in Canada.
"The song is a message to citizens about what they can do to help stop the spread of Ebola in Africa. The song is performed in French and vernacular languages widely spoken across the region to ensure that the message is understood regardless of the level of literacy and education of the population." http://youtu.be/ruYQY6z3mV8 https://www.facebook.com/pages/Africa-Stop-Ebola/1542298179316863 |
